I have a thing for puppets. My oldest toy, now in Savannah's possession, is a wooden marionette my parents bought me in the 70s. It was a Christmas present to go with the huge puppet theatre that my dad had made me and which I saw him pushing into my bedroom on Christmas eve; the moment I realised Santa wasn't real...
Talma Vardi's ceramic marionettes caught my eye yesterday. I liked the mini puppet installation she'd created by stringing them up together to take product photos for her etsy shop AnnaLela.
These are cool! How is the chocolate situation?! Stephie x
ReplyDeleteI am a lover of puppets too. My daughter used to host a puppet show in honor of her birthday every year... her birthday is Christmas eve. More recently my husband made a puppet theater for our grandchildren & I made all the little characters. Each one (about 12 in all) came alive & became a real person for me. I love your story of your home made puppet theater.
